Washington loves a good elites-behaving-badly story, whether it’s real life or fiction. Which is why we’re hanging out with Emma Sasaki, the pseudonymous author of It’s a Privilege Just to Be Here, a novel set at a D.C. private school that looks a lot like Sidwell Friends School, which just happens to be her alma mater. The book is pretty scathing — especially about the parents, who have been scathing right back.
