Desh (Bengali: দেশ) is a Bengali language literary magazine published by the ABP Group from India on the 2nd and the 17th of every month. This magazine, which has been in publication since 1933, has been edited by editors like Sagarmoy Ghosh in the past. The present editor is Suman Sengupta. After the death of Sagarmoy Ghosh, Desh started publishing non-fiction articles and essays on topics of current, historical, and cultural interest. Started weekly, it evolved into a fortnightly in recent years. It has also drifted from being a purely literary magazine to a more current affairs-oriented format. Journalist and Ramon Magsaysay award winner Amitabha Chowdhury edited the magazine for quite some time after Sagarmoy Ghosh. Desh is published from 6 Prafulla Sarkar Street, Kolkata 700 001.
Desh is still considered to be the best literary magazine of the Bengali-speaking intelligentsia. It is often referred to as the "New Yorker of Bengal" . Almost all of the eminent authors and stalwarts of Bengali language and literature have sometimes or the other, written in Desh, from Rabindranath Tagore to Satyajit Ray, Mahasweta Devi, Sunil Gangopadhyay. The puja issue of Desh remains a major literary attraction in Bengali literature. The magazine is one of the oldest magazines in India.
Desh also has a sub-publication named Boier Desh (since 2003) where the latest books in Bengali and English language are reviewed by well-known authors and critics. Boier Desh also carries with it every issue an interview with famous Bengali and international literary personalities. Boier Desh is a quarterly magazine.
