PS To say nothing of 13 across
14d - As French writer's hardly understood at first, leaves that for his compatriots (9)

Hugoesque - 'h(ardly) u(nderstood)' (at first) + 'goes' + 'que' (Fr. "that")
there's no 13a,
You mean 12a I think -

Compound having better reduced part to perform earlier in the day (11)

Caprolactam - 'cap' (better) + 'rol(e)' (reduced part) + 'act' + 'a.m.'
7d Zemstva
