Heep of literature crossword clue
51 Down · WSJ Crossword, October 21, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Heep of literature” is URIAH. It appears as 51 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 21, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Rock Climbing” by Mike Graczyk, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 11, column 4 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with U and ends with H, and contains 3 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
