Impossible. You can get a pretty good impression, and you may be able to imagine what someone else feels like, but you can never actually know it.

Which writer gives the best impression of what it's like?

I don't know. Someone else would probably be better equipped to answer your questions, since I don't believe that truly knowing other people's conscious experiences to that degree is possible.
