This is really a shot in the dark, but I can't helping wondering whether you're referring to Virginia Woolf and her book "Orlando: A Biography." (She called it a biography, though it is usually categorized as a novel.) "Orlando" is, in an unusual sense, a biography of Vita Sackville-West, with whom Woolf had had an affair, and it concerns a young man who not only does not age but also turns into a woman. The photographs in the book are, in fact, of Vita:
