Nu is the greek/foreign letter ...Zola is the French author

[Neveracrossword]

Emile Zola, the (famous) French novelist and Nu, one of the greek or Latin ones (mu, nu, eta etc). Zonula, small zone, band, area.

PS Farrwest, did you untangle the non-word thematic stuff? If elt it promised more than it delivered!

[Farrwest]

Thanks Roslyn and NAC. I finally cottoned on to rotating the final letter to the top of the unclued. Still not a fan of Cheesecracker!

Thanks, Farrwest, glad you got the thematic bits sorted. I'm not a huge fan of Cheesecracker, but prefer him to .... someone you like!
