It looks like you want an "named indexer". Here's (my) one way to accomplish that using C#.

My approach exposes a property that returns an object (with a default indexer) which will perform the indexing into the appropriate field given the lambdas to do it.

There are reasons you may or not want to use this method, but I'll leave that to you. :)
