His literary work had been ignored for 150 years until the summer of 1989 when Manolis Anagnostakis, head of Nefelis house, published the first lot of previously unknown works, found in a collection belinging to the Vikelea Library of Heraklion. A few months later Hermes published more works.
The two novels are:
1. «Ο Πολυπαθής» [The Passionate One](?) published in Athens in 1839.
2. «Ο Ζωγράφος» [The Painter] published in Constantinople in 1842.
