Yevgeny Yevtushenko poem from 1967 called "Bratsk Station"
The great Soviet poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko wrote a longish poem called Bratsk Station, published in 1967, to honor this hydroelectric power station. It features a dialogue between the power station, representing modern power built by an educated working class to serve the people, and is considered the Light, vs. the Sphinx, built by slave labor to honor the Pharoah, and represents the Dark of ages gone by when the science of the times was used to keep royalty in power over the people. 74.108.41.153 (talk) 01:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
