Rebirth

During the 1970s the publication encountered financial difficulties and increasing levels of student apathy and as a result had to be rescued by a group of interested postgraduates. it was then relaunched in 1979 as a magazine of "new writing" aimed at both writers and a wider audience than the original Cambridge limited one. Granta has been edited by Ian Jack since 1995. As of September 2004, its circulation was 46,831.
