My first guess would be Dostoevsky 'The Idiot', but that only uses part of the first and second clues.

ФЁДОР (Fedor) I took to be Fyodor (Dostoevsky) and only the Id from the Freud clue and ending with IoT

... so all I ended up with was Fedor Idiot - and the rest was a guess.

Spot on. Lightening quick! 😜

Fedor is correct. I meant to use the cyllic translation for the article THE but forgo to change it. Sorry for that confusion.

FREUD: ID
IOT - internet of things

Congrats 👏 👏 👏

I have been trying to listen to it on Audible and it's been tough, but now that i am slowly getting a handle on who is who I am settling into it.

It was the Bronco what done it. When I realised it symbolised “of” it was easier for me to put it together. Another good one.

Part of this rebus is the rime (rhyme) of the ancient mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. But I don’t”t understand the duplicate clues.

I agree. I think those two repeated clues are decoded as 'article' (art tickle), but I don't see how that fits the rebus.

Well done guys! I was hoping the definite article might be the red herring that kept you slightly off the scent. The title of the poem's spelling of Rime is I believe edition correct for the first print. I found a copy of the original poem's title and it was RIME - looking a bit deeper (Strunk & White) and the OED I found that Historically rime was used in the context of poetry, such as in the title of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge poem.

Congrats to Canuck for the overall solve 🏆🏆🏆🏆
and to TM for the resolve of the ART-TICKLE = article 🏆🏆🏆🏆
