Yevtushenko has had a num- ber of poems published in re- cent months, notably Bratsk Hydroelectric Station, an epic running to about 10,000 lines.

After Premier K hrus hchev cracked down on liberal artists in 1962 and 1943--no doubt feel- ing they were getting out of hand--Yevtushenko fell into of- ficial disgrace. He did not reappear in public until last fall, at a time when there was widespread specula- tion about a new artistic thaw following the overthrow of Khrushchev. STRAITJACKET EASED Subsequent events seemed to discourage any expectation of a swift and fundamental loosening of controls. However, various signs have suggested that art- ists are becoming more confi dent and a little more disposed to experiment with forms and) material previously considered) taboo by guardians of ideologi-! cal purity. By any yardstick publication of Yevtushenko's new poems, in| the magazine Yunost (Youth), is an important event in Soviet literary development. Bratsk Hydroelectric Station is characterized by the same groping for truth that marks all of the 32-year-old Yevtushenko's poetry. This yearning is reflected in an early passage describing a journey across Russia he made with his wife Galya, in a small car. One evening at dusk, Galya got out the transistor radio which, says the poet, was '"'hiss-| ing in her hands." : McCULLOUGH LUMBER co.
