You’ll see a theme to the first few cryptic puzzles. We start at the beginning. There are five “theme” answers in this puzzle (one is very esoteric) that point to a song. Answer posted on Monday, July 20!
EDIT – previously, there were two enumeration mistakes:
3D was clued as (9) but should be (2,3,4)
22D had no enumeration – it should be (6)
The versions below are correct. The proofreading staff has been spoken to.
Thank you for the fun puzzle. The only clue I still don’t fully understand is 3D, but I’m not an experienced cryptic crossword solver. As someone trying to improve his solving, I really enjoyed your puzzle and look forward to more in the future. π
The answer is posted today, with the explanation for all answers. Thanks for the positive feedback – new puzzle next Monday!
