I was sort of swept off my feet during the weekend,
hi there
can you simply this sentence for me??i mean gist of sentence
meaning of "Why did she sweep you off her feet? Off your feet?" and I was sort of swept off my feet during the weekend,"
SACKS: —no, no. I was never intending to write about her. I met her, and
I was sort of swept off my feet during the weekend, and I largely wrote
the piece on the journey back from Colorado.
ROSE: Why did she sweep you off her feet? Off your feet?
SACKS: Well, here’s a woman who was deeply autistic at three, and sort
of rocking and mute and inaccessible, and now she is this, this
extraordinary sort of world expert on cattle, and highly intelligent, and
yet, in a way, completely missing in the sort of social dimension. She
doesn’t understand people’s expressions or states of mind.

Being "swept off your feet" has a lot of connotations; it's like being surprised, enchanted, and moved by an experience all at the same time. It's overwhelming, but not in a bad way. In a good and life changing way.

Usually when we say someone swept us off our feet, we mean it in a romantic way. eg. We married within a few months of knowing each other, he swept me off my feet.
In this context them mean they never intended to write about them, but they were so impressed by her, they got caught up in the experience and felt compelled.
